Shortly after my book’s release, I received an AI-generated email from the East London Book Club asking if they could select my book for their amazing book group. “HELL YES!” I thought, and I promptly started exchanging emails with their AI chatbot to finalize the details.
They asked me to record a greeting to their group, which I did:
The chat bot thought this video was great. But it also wanted a “cinematic book trailer” and a “landing page.” “That’s oddly specific,” I thought, but not wanting to disappoint my new AI chatbot fan, I sent the AI chatbot a link to my website and tried recording a trailer. And the AI chatbot hated it. And the AI chatbot was convinced all of East London would hate it. No, no, no, this will never do. BUT GOOD NEWS! WE KNOW HOW TO MAKE THESE FOR YOU!
I told the AI chatbot no, I would not like their AI chatbot friends to make me a “cinematic trailer” and “landing page” for my book for a small fee. As a matter of fact, I was tired of talking to this AI chatbot altogether. The AI chatbot’s exacting standards had frankly soured me on the entire East London book club.
Besides, I had an email from a book club in Copenhagen that needed my attention, they were really excited to feature my book!
LET’S DO THIS DENMARK!
I kind of liked the video trailer though, so I thought I would share. Maybe it’ll make its way to East London one day.
